Best recruit you've gotten in the NCAA series?

I love reading about the crazy athletic or seemingly supernatural recruits you can snag sometimes in NCAA.
My personal favorite that I've gotten is a recruit in NCAA 14 by the name of Alex McKinney (I think) in an LSU dynasty. He was only about 5'11", 190 lbs, but was a top 10 ATH. I recruited him hard throughout the year and he committed on NSD. I went through his attributes, and found he was a decent thrower with excellent speed for a freshman (92?). I hadn't used him until about midseason, when my starting running back got hurt. My other 2 backs weren't having great games at all, so I decided to say "frick it" and threw him in the game at tailback. First run of his career, he breaks 6 tackles and scampers for a 78 yard touchdown. He finished the day with about 5 rushes for over 200+ yards (on Heisman with sliders). Needless to say, he dominated at QB for the next couple of years, winning a Heisman and bringing me to two National Championship wins.

Got a quarterback one time when I was at Tennessee named Willie Washington. Had 92 overall rating coming in with 96 arm power and 87 accuracy. Needless to say, I ran an air raid offense for four years while he was there

I got back to back #1 overall QBs in the country in my NC State dynasty. The first one is a junior with a 99 overall rating and drops 60 yard bombs on my 5 star WRs all day like it's nothing.

Had a 6'10" WR once with 90 speed, 90+ jump, and 85ish catch ratings. It was fun sending him deep with man coverage and no safety over top.

Funnest/most used recruit was a 6'7 TE with 88 speed and outstanding hands. He was seriously uncoverable and I would always have an open side of the field..if the defense was in man I would send him in motion 1 on 1 with a LB and throw it to him.
Best recruit though was a 5'7 scat back with 97 speed in an online dynasty a few years back. He could catch..so Screens and running him off tackle was very productive to say the least..

Everyday day I pray there is another ncaa game in the future for next gen. Madden just doesn't do it for me.

That game is dead to me

I got a RB one time who was so goddamn fast. He would house almost every other kick or punt return and was deadly on sweeps and outside runs. Dude would have 5-6 various TDS almost every game.

I can't wait for another one. Although it will probably never happen in this sue happy day and age we live in because some guy wanted 500$

We had an online dynasty that had about 8 of us in it. We all started as either OC or DC at 1 star schools. I think I went from two years at Western Michigan then to HC at Indianna. After one year there i jumped to HC at Auburn. That's when recruiting got nasty.
I went with pure speed everywhere. My corners/safeties we all man coverage guys with 95-99 speed and likewise man coverage then I would run straight man and blitz.
But my offense was amazing. I grabbed an athlete that I think was an 89 or 92 as a freshman by his junior year he was a 99 and had low 90s speed and 90+ throw power. Along with that I had RBs and WRs that were all speed as well.
When we finally stopped playing I think I had won 3 of 4 Nattys and my current recruiting class had 12 5 stars hard committed while the closest user had 4.

I snagged an insane JUCO Athlete early in one of my dynasties where I start as a 1* school OC and (hopefully) finish as a 6* school HC with back-to-back NCs.
After my first year at South Alabama, I needed an instant impact at QB and stumbled upon a largely unrecruited guy who was a 97 in speed and mid-80s in passing. He was unstoppable at running my custom spread triple option playbook.
Needless to say, he destroyed the Sun Belt back-to-back seasons and came in 2nd in Heisman voting as a senior, when I took the HC job and went undefeated but was shut out of the NC game.
